I almost miss the stress

After so many weeks of aggravation and the most grueling mortgage approval process in the history of the world (it sure felt that way), after nearly 300 emails from realtors, mortgage brokers, underwriters, title companies, etc., after what seemed like a hundred faxes and possibly a thousand phone calls, we finally had a closing date. Yesterday at 3:30. Our flight landed at 11:30. Our realtor picked us up from the Tampa airport, drove us all the way to the townhouse in Spring Hill for the final walk through (everything was absolutely perfect), drove us back to Tampa where the closing was taking place. We then had a couple of hours to kill, so we had lunch. At 3:00 we went into the office. "The package" had not yet arrived. What we learned at that point was, that "the package" consisted of documents from the underwriter. Once it arrived, there was approximately 45 minutes worth of preparation from the title company. Let's bear in mind that our flight to go home was scheduled for 7:15. Let's also bear in mind that we were 45 minutes away from the airport. Let's also bear in mind that it is summer in Florida, so that means it was POURING RAIN. Let's also bear in mind that the closing process takes a minimum of an hour. 3:30 no package. 4:00 no package. 4:15 the package arrives. 5:10 we start the closing. My heart pounding out of my chest as we sign our lives away.... At 6:20 we leave for the airport. Did I mention it was POURING? Did I mention we were in down town Tampa at rush hour? Did I mention the flight was at 7:15? Actually at this point, we had learned it was delayed 10 minutes, so 7:25. STRESS!!!! We arrived at the airport at 7:00. RAN through to the security gate. Of course there's a huge line. Tick tock goes the clock. Poor hubby had to run to the gate holding his belt in one hand and his shorts up with the other!!! We run, run, run to the gate ....... only to discover the plane isn't even there yet! Thank goodness for the rain. It was delayed an hour. We had time to eat. We've been relaxing ever since. I'm not sure what to do with myself...
